Description
12/13/17:
Updated with a placeholder of his redesign because the old sheet was getting painful to look at
the edge it burns
And some info about him;
- Spirit of Chaos, his brand is specifically societal upheaval and drastic change
- While Hodgepodge's chaos manifests as confusion and minor inconveniences, Anarchy's chaos manifests as general distrust and paranoia in a population, especially towards authority figures
- Basic personality: disillusioned, sullen young adult who had his aspirations and personal identity nearly browbeaten out of him. Not satisfied with where he is in life but more or less feels trapped in it by external factors. This results in near-perpetual brooding and moodiness
- Eternal enemy of Harmonium, the Spirit of Harmony and his opposing force. Harmonium personifies the status quo, which is wildly at odds with Anarchy's entire being
- Despite this, the two of them carry on a somewhat-relationship. It's a toxic relationship with Harmonium constantly trying to reign in Anarchy (part of this strategy involves openly flirting with other men to make him jealous), and Anarchy getting involved in affairs to assert his independence. Neither one will break it off out of the need to be right
- Nicknamed "Sparky" for the form his magic takes (lightning). He hates this nickname
- His mentor is Hodgepodge , a retired Spirit of Chaos. Hodgepodge strongly disapproves of Anarchy's "elementary" view of what real chaos is, and isn't shy about telling Anarchy what he thinks. All Hodgepodge's lectures have really done is to solidify the concept in Anarchy's mind
- Anarchy knows next to nothing about Hodgepodge's predecessor, and whenever the subject comes up Hodgepodge is notoriously tight-lipped on details and quickly changes the subject
- He currently maintains an illicit affair with Pox of Pestilence, to spite Hodgepodge and because he views Pox as a confidant. More than anything, though, he is jealous of the freedom that Pox enjoys, and so also holds Pox up as something of a role model
- Pox has taken him on "outings" several times for him to practice his chaos freely on other worlds, away from Hodgepodge's view (something Hodgepodge vehemently disapproves of but is always unable to prevent). A few times throughout history, the two of them being present in the same place has caused the downfall of the society they visited, and drawn Mortimer's ire due to the sudden high number of deaths in an otherwise healthy civilization Old sheet

Ooh. Sort of a Hellscream to Thrall. I like it. Also he is cute and I want to cuddle him even knowing it would result in my own painful death.

I just realized they haven't expanded on Discord's backstory that much in the show or comics; spirit of chaos, draconequus, etc. all of it got nothing. Most we get is that nobody knows how to spell the name, it's either draconequus, dragonokis, draconequis or draconaquis.

So who exactly is Hodgepodge? Is he the previous embodiment of chaos?

I wrote some info about him over here , but yesh he's Discord's predecessor and former mentor, and right now is mentoring both Anarchy and Harmonium while Discord is off in magical ponyland.

Ironically, I prefer his old edgy OCish look over this one. It felt more in character for a young Discord replacement and with more personality.
This one feels in a way, too serious, even his color palette is too uniform and pleasant to the eye.

grievousfan In reply to JAEneth [2017-12-08 14:54:57 +0000 UTC]
The old OC-ish look was from before I'd put any thought into it other than "Discord but Edgy". After a little bit it started not feeling like it suited him, because unlike Discord's brand of confused and disoriented chaos Anarchy knows exactly what he wants and is pretty straightforward in how he'll go about getting it, so his design is more unified.
Plus all the Chaos spirits all looking about the same (noodle body and mismtatched limbs) isn't very chaotic so Anarchy and two other Chaos spirits look pretty "normal". Hodgpodge and Discord are the outliers who just look fuggin' weird from a biological and sensible standpoint.

If you want to distinguish him more from discord you could try accessorizing. Maybe not with an item exactly but how about a lackey? Discord has Fluttershy to play off of, maybe Anarchy would have some punk criminal underling as needed for menial tasks/exposition?

grievousfan In reply to NuclearPoweredPony [2015-02-26 20:16:49 +0000 UTC]
Anarchy's more the type to step over everyone else to get what he wants. He'd only keep a lackey around for as long as was necessary before either ditching them or metaphorically (or literally) throwingΒ them under a bus :V

NuclearPoweredPony In reply to grievousfan [2015-02-27 04:36:50 +0000 UTC]
And this conflicts with his status as a villain how?

grievousfan In reply to NuclearPoweredPony [2015-02-27 04:47:33 +0000 UTC]
....not much But for the first couple of chapters he doesn't have one because it isn't really necessary.
This would be fun as a side project, though >^> hmmmm

I'd call you a name thief, but since yours came out in may, vs mine in August, that'd be a lie, I guess it's just a common name among Draconequui.

grievousfan In reply to Werewolf-Korra [2013-11-27 00:04:25 +0000 UTC]
I've seen this name used a few more times since I made this character, actually :V Yours and the one from the Pony POV stories.
Also recently I've been seeing draconequi with six wings, which is one of the defining traits of Harmonium since I first made concepts for her back in April >:I pfff now people are going to think I'm ripping them off

Werewolf-Korra In reply to grievousfan [2013-11-27 01:17:39 +0000 UTC]
I originally had my DOC with four wings (two bat/dragon wings under the two angel/bird wings), as well as a pair of spider legs (for support, as it was originally a much longer design, necessitating a more centaur-like build)

I was so excited when this popped up in google images as I had thought someone had finally drawn fanart of Anarchy from my fanfiction but alas...I was wrong
Still awesome though

XD Well, as long as you show many mishaps between him and Discord, I'll be happy~ Perhaps Discord would actually let him close to it and "flush it down a toilet" as a joke?
